Registered Agent Market Share

We have taken the overall number of entities listing registered agent companies from the following states:

South Dakota, Alaska, Missouri, and Arkansas. All data is direct from the states’ Secretary of State and Corporations Division websites. This main graph averages the total number of filings in each of those four states, not an average of all 51 states. We feel this graph accurately captures overall market share for national registered agent service providers. We specifically did not factor in Delaware, New York, Florida, Texas, Nevada, California, or Washington because those states are states where a national registered agent service companies are headquartered. We also did not use states like Wyoming or Montana where people form holding companies. We are estimate this graph to be accurate within a margin of error of 2% either way.
